On Display: Testing, Testing 1,2,3
February 24, 2016
Now on display in the library's lobby, the “Testing, Testing 1,2,3” display has three kinds of materials:
- Assistance with practice for professional exams, certifications, and credentialing. Advancing a career to the next step sometimes requires taking a test such as GMAT, LSAT, GRE, CPA exam…. The likely users of these materials are graduate students or people about to finish their Bentley undergrad journey.
- For anyone who has headaches getting ready for assessments in a timed setting, there is a wide selection of books with tips for users to study smarter, not harder. Titles in this group address strategies for test taking, time management, study skills, and stress busting. Outsmart the test.
- Finally, the "Testing, Testing 1,2,3" display offers material to answer academic questions such as, “What is the value of standardized tests in our school systems?” and “In what ways has teaching-to-the-test influenced education?” These materials will benefit researchers looking into education theory and the culture of standardized assessments.
